Colin Cowturd on Sean Taylor

[DynamiteRave]

It seems like he's saying because he's Black and grew up making bad decisions he must have continued making them throughout his life. I, like Ghettodog, hate that statement about not growing up African American but him growing up middle class. -I- grew up as what one would say is somewhere between Middle Class and working class and I have made bad decisions yet have had every opportunity that my White counterparts have had. Race isn't and never should have been the issue with ST.

Taylor isn't some thug who was roaming the streets and a victim of violence. I mean the guy was EDUCATED. He was a college student. He wasn't stupid and it pisses me off that people are making him out to be some hoodrat. Its hard to come up from a not nice neighborhood and make something of yourself.

So many people nowadays of all races, bitch about how Black people from the inner city don't better themselves and ST is one of the rare few who DID. Instead of making a quick buck on the corner slinging drugs, he went through high school AND college AND made a career in playing football.

Damn, give the guy a break.
